Before purchasing the silverline extractor I was contemplating the purchase of the Pela oil pump.
I bought the silverline owing top its bargain price- big mistake - it is absolutely useless - do not waste your money
Threw it in the bin in disgust - it can pump water ( just ) but not oil.
I then purchased a Pela 6.5 litre pump from amazon ( ordered one of their more expensive pumps as I wanted to ensure It was good quality )
the pela pumped works incredibly well - so at least have a working pump now
The SILVERLINE pump just has no power or suction - worst thing I have ever bought from the amazon website.

I've only used this once however I found it slow to remove the oil from my C220; Maybe it was my fault, the engine oil could have been too cold before I started to extract it; not sure. I have to change the oil in a 206 soon so I'll try to come back here and try to update this when I change the oil in that car.

I bought this Silverline Oil Extractor Pump for changing the oil on my car. High mileage means that I do oil changes every 10 or 12 weeks and jacking up the car and draining the sump is a real chore. This pump does exactly what it claims. You lower the clear plastic suction pipe down the dipstick hole as far as it will go, pump the handle at the top (it's like a bicycle pump) and oil rises up the tube and into the jug. When the jug is nearly full, which only takes a few minutes, you unscrew the suction tube which releases the vacuum and pour the old oil into a waiting container using the convenient handle. Then, if there's more oil to extract, reconnect the suction tube and pump again. When the sump is empty you can hear a gurgling noise as air enters the tube, like reaching the end of a McDonald's milkshake. The pump extracted as much oil as I would expect to collect from the sump drain plug in a conventional oil change.
When the pump was delivered there were two suction tubes of different diameters in the box. Both were tightly coiled and I had to spend some time warming them gently with a hairdryer to straighten them before first use. In fact, assuming you've warmed the engine before the oil change, the pipe becomes quite flexible as soon as the warm oil has passed through it but you might struggle to get that coiled pipe down to the sump unless you've straightened it first. It's a good idea to clean the suction pipe and jug after use so that you can see the oil flow clearly next time, so before packing it away I sucked up a little petrol with it and swilled it around the jug, which left the pipe and jug as clean as new for next time. It would have been useful to have some markings on the side of the jug to show the litres of oil extracted but I suppose you could add these yourself with a measuring jug and permanent marker.
I'm lucky that on my Volvo the oil filter is at the front of the engine and easily accessible from above so I didn't have to jack up the car or get underneath at all. However if your oil filter is on the sump you may still need to jack up the car to replace it which means the time saving won't be as much.
In conclusion, this tool has made oil-changes a much quicker, cleaner process for me and I shall use it every time. I recommend this product.

Good value for the money
What I can say is that it does work considering the price. The plastic tube supplied was too thick to go down the dip stick tube on my SAAB 93. Read more
